To inspire others toward conserving wildlife resources, at risk species, and habitats, nothing is more compelling than a good story— especially when that story is easily accessible on the web. Dan Chapman, Mark Davis, Roy Hewitt and Phil Kloer have demonstrated their excellence in telling Southeast Region stories that have inspired the public on conservation issues ranging from the impacts of three hurricanes to the value of collaborative conservation that balances wildlife needs with the ability to use lands for economic benefit.
Giving their stories and photos a home on an attractively redesigned website and a new website section called Nature’s Good
Neighbors has helped, too, with analytics showing a 28.5 percent increase in Southeast Region page-views over a nine-month period in 2018. Also, many third-party organizations are republishing stories from the region in their own publications. These organizations include state wildlife agencies, local news organizations, commercial blogs, and industry trade groups, which brings our story to a wider audience.

Palácio da Alvorada - Entrada... mas nem pense entrar!
Residência Oficial do Presidente da República do Brasil.
Setor de Hotéis e Turismo Norte - Na península que divide o Lago Paranoá em Lago Sul e Lago Norte.
(Brasília é o único bem contemporâneo do mundo considerado Patrimônio da Humanidade).
O Palácio da Alvorada, residência oficial do Presidente da República, foi o primeiro edifício construído em alvenaria na nova capital Brasília, em 30 de junho de 1958. Situado às margens do Lago Paranoá, tornou-se símbolo do movimento moderno da arquitetura do país. Projetado por Oscar Niemeyer, suas colunas tornaram-se símbolo da cidade: forma do brasão do Distrito Federal. O nome ao palácio foi dado por Juscelino Kubitschek, que o justificou dizendo que Brasília era a alvorada de um novo dia para o Brasil. É dito que Juscelino recusou o primeiro projeto feito por Niemeyer, por "falta de monumentalidade", e pediu que o arquiteto refizesse os traços para construir um palácio "que daqui a cem anos ainda seja admirado".
As elegantes colunas de mármore, em forma de aviões, dão a impressão de que o edifício está pousado no solo. São esculturas que proporcionam diversas visões conforme o ângulo pelo qual se olha. O palácio é revestido de mármore e tem sua fachada de vidro. Sua configuração horizontal, arrematada por uma capela que remete às antigas casas de fazenda do Brasil colonial. O formato diferenciado das colunas externas lembram as redes estendidas em varandas, como as que contornam nessas casas. À frente do Palácio existem duas esculturas: "As Laras", de Alfredo Ceschiatti, e "O Rio dos Ritmos", de Maria Martins. Ao lado, uma capela com fachada de Athos Bulcão. Há também um espelho d´água que reflete a construção que dá impressão de estar flutuando sobre as águas. O gramado da frente do palácio é habitado por flamingos, garças e emas. Um pequeno canal, habitado por carpas, separa a residência oficial da rua.
Como todo Palácio... são sete mil metros quadrados de área, e 800 de construção destinada ao presidente. A suíte do casal tem 120 metros quadrados, a biblioteca 150, a piscina olímpica tem sistema de aquecimento, o mezanino tem pé-direito de 9 metros. Há ainda três salas de estar, sala de música, de jantar e uma específica para banquetes. São, em média, 72 funcionários, entre secretários, assistentes, garçons, seguranças e até médicos, 24 horas por dia ao dispor da família presidencial. A visita ao Palácio da Alvorada é realizada às quartas-feiras, das 15h às 17h30. São distribuídas no máximo trezentas senhas.
Alvorada Palace - Entrance... but do not bother to enter!
Official Residence of the President of Brazil.
Hotels and Tourism Sector North - On the peninsula that divides the Lake Paranoá, in Lake Paranoá South and North.
(Brasilia is the only well-regarded contemporary world Heritage Site).
The Alvorada Palace, official residence of the President, was the first brick building built in the new capital Brasilia, on June 30, 1958. Situated on the shores of Lake Paranoá, became a symbol of the modern movement in architecture in the country. Designed by Oscar Niemeyer, his columns have become a symbol of the city: the shape of the crest of the Federal District. The name of the palace was given by Juscelino Kubitschek, who justified it by saying that Brasilia was the dawn of a new day for Brazil. It is said that Kubitschek refused the first project done by Niemeyer, for "lack of grandeur" and asked the architect to redo the lines to build a palace "in a hundred years that is still admired."
The elegant marble columns in the form of aircraft, give the impression that the building is resting on the ground. There are sculptures that provide different views depending on the angle at which you look. The palace is lined with marble and has its glass facade. Its horizontal configuration, topped by a chapel that refers to the old farm houses of colonial Brazil. The different format of external columns reminiscent of the extended networks of balconies, such as those that surround homes. In front of the Palace there are two sculptures: "The Laras' of Alfredo Ceschiatti, and" Rhythms of Rio ", by Maria Martins. Beside, a chapel façade by Athos Bulcão. There is also a mirror of water reflecting the construction that gives the impression of floating on water. The front lawn of the palace is home to flamingos, herons and ostriches. A small channel, which is inhabited by carp, separates the official residence of the street.
Like all the Palaces... there are seven thousand square meters, and 800 building intended for the chairperson. The master bedroom has 120 square meters, the library 150, the Olympic swimming pool has heating system, the mezzanine ceiling height is 9 meters. There are three living rooms, music room, dining room and a special banquet. They are, on average, 72 employees, including secretaries, assistants, waiters, security guards and even doctors, 24 hours a day available to the presidential family. The visit to the Alvorada Palace is held on Wednesdays from 3 PM to 5:30 PM. No more than three hundred passwords are distributed.

A text In English:
The Swallow-tailed Hummingbird, so called from its forked tail, is one of the largest hummingbirds in cities and gardens, but it also occurs in gallery forests, bushy pastures and edges of woods or coppices. It is green, except for the blue head and upper breast, turning to iridescent purple according to the direction of light; it has dark wings and a heavy black bill. The tail is dark blue with the external feathers longer than central ones. It is very aggressive and attacks other hummingbirds that dare to visit flowers in certain trees. Where the flowers are available for many months, the individual is fiercely territorial, but generally needs to search soon for other flowering plants. It flies to catch small insets on or under leaves in the gallery forests or woodlands. The female builds a small cup-shaped nest saddled on a branch, not far from the main trunk in the shade of leaves. Perched on favorite branches, the male can utter long but low chirps. Once in a while, it interrupts these singing sessions to feed, and flies back for more song or to clean the plumage. They occur from the Guianas and Amazon River to Paraguay and southeastern Peru. They can get along with partially deforested zones, but may disappear with intensive agriculture and with the development of treeless cities.
Um texto em Português:
Beija-flor Tesoura (Eupetomena macroura), fotografado em Brasília-DF, Brasil.
Eupetomena macroura (Gmelin, 1788): tesoura; swallow-tailed hummingbird c.
Destaca-se das espécies estudadas pelo maior porte e pela cauda comprida e bifurcada, o que lhe valeu o nome popular. Como é comum entre os beija-flores, é uma espécie agressiva que disputa com outras o seu território e fontes de alimento.
Nidificação: o ninho, em forma de tigela, é assentado numa forquilha de arbusto ou árvores, a cerca de 2 a 3 m do solo. O material utilizado na construção é composto por fibras vegetais incluindo painas, musgos e liquens, aderidos externamente com teias de aranhas.
Hábitat: capoeiras, cerrados, borda de matas e jardins.
Tamanho: 17,0 cm
A SEGUIR UM TEXTO ENCONTRADO E REPRODUZIDO DO ENDEREÇO nationalgeographic.abril.uol.com.br/ng/edicoes/83/reporta... DA NATIONAL GEOGRAFIC:
Prodígios da micro-engenharia, os beija-flores são os campeões dos pesos-leves entre as aves
Uma faísca safira, um frêmito de asas, e o minúsculo pássaro - ou seria um inseto? - some como miragem fugaz. Reaparece instantes depois, agora num ângulo melhor. É pássaro mesmo, um dervixe do tamanho do meu polegar com asas que batem 80 vertiginosas vezes por segundo, produzindo um zumbido quase inaudível. As penas da cauda, à guisa de leme, delicadamente direcionam o vôo em três direções. Ele fita a trombeta de uma vistosa flor alaranjada e do bico fino como agulha projeta uma língua delgada feito linha. Um raio de Sol ricocheteia de suas penas iridescentes. A cor refletida deslumbra como uma pedra preciosa contra uma janela ensolarada. Não admira que os beija-flores sejam tão queridos e que tanta gente já tenha tropeçado ao tentar descrevê-los. Nem mesmo circunspectos cientistas resistem a termos como "belo", "magnífico", "exótico".
Surpresa maior é o fato de o aparentemente frágil beija-flor ser uma das mais resistentes criaturas do reino animal. Cerca de 330 espécies prosperam em ambientes diversos, muitos deles brutais: do Alasca à Argentina, do deserto do Arizona à costa de Nova Scotia, da Amazônia à linha nevada acima dos 4,5 mil metros nos Andes (misteriosamente, essas aves só são encontradas no Novo Mundo).
"Eles vivem no limite do que é possível aos vertebrados, e com maestria", diz Karl Schuchmann, ornitólogo do Instituto Zoológico Alexander Koenig e do Fundo Brehm, na Alemanha. Schuchmann ouviu falar de um beija-flor que viveu 17 anos em cativeiro. "Imagine a resistência de um organismo de 5 ou 6 gramas para viver tanto tempo!", diz ele espantado. Em média, o minúsculo coração de um beija-flor bate cerca de 500 vezes por minuto (em repouso!). Assim, o desse pequeno cativo teria batido meio bilhão de vezes, quase o dobro do total de uma pessoa de 70 anos.
Mas esses passarinhos são duráveis apenas em vida. Quando morrem, seus ossos delicados e ocos quase nunca se fossilizam. Daí o assombro causado pela recente descoberta de um amontoado de fósseis de aves que talvez inclua um beija-flor ancestral de 30 milhões de anos. Como os beija-flores modernos, os espécimes fósseis tinham o bico longo e fino e os ossos superiores das asas mais curtos, terminando em uma saliência arredondada que talvez lhes permitisse fazer a rotação na articulação do ombro e parar no ar.
A outra surpresa foi o local do achado: no sul da Alemanha, longe do território dos beija-flores atuais. Para alguns cientistas, essa descoberta mostra que já existiram beija-flores fora das Américas, mas se extinguiram. Ou quem sabe os fósseis não fossem de beija-flor. Os céticos, entre eles Schuchmann, afirmam que muitas vezes, ao longo da evolução, outros grupos de aves adquiriram características semelhantes às do beija-flor. Os verdadeiros beija-flores, diz Schuchmann, evoluíram nas florestas do leste do Brasil, onde competiam com insetos pelo néctar das flores.
"O Brasil foi o laboratório do protótipo", diz o ornitólogo. "E o modelo funcionou." O beija-flor tornou-se a obra-prima da microengenharia da natureza. Aperfeiçoou sua habilidade de parar no ar há dezenas de milhões de anos para competir por parte das flores do Novo Mundo.
"Eles são uma ponte entre o mundo das aves e o dos insetos", diz Doug Altshuler, da Universidade da Califórnia em Riverside. Altshuler, que estuda o vôo dos beija-flores, examinou os movimentos das asas do pássaro. Observou que, nele, os impulsos elétricos propulsores dos músculos das asas lembram mais os dos insetos que os das aves. Talvez por isso o beija-flor produza tanta energia por batida de asas: mais, por unidade de massa, que qualquer outro vertebrado. Altshuler também analisou os trajetos neurais do beija-flor, que funcionam com a mesma vertiginosa velocidade encontrada nas aves mais ágeis, como seu primo mais próximo, o andorinhão. "São incríveis; uns pequenos Frankesteins", compara.
Certamente eles sabem intimidar: grama por grama, talvez sejam os maiores confrontadores da natureza. "O vocabulário do beija-flor deve ser 100% composto de palavrões", graceja Sheri Williamson, naturalista do Southeastern Arizona Bird Observatory. A agressão do beija-flor nasce de ferozes instintos territoriais moldados à necessidade de sugar néctar a cada poucos minutos. Os beija-flores competem desafiando e ameaçando uns aos outros. Postam-se face a face no ar, rodopiam, mergulham na direção da grama e voam de ré, em danças de dominância que terminam tão subitamente quanto começam.
O melhor lugar para vermos tais batalhas é nas montanhas, especialmente no Equador, em que ricos ecossistemas se apresentam em suas várias altitudes. Sheri supõe que o sentido norte-sul das cordilheiras americanas também crie rotas favoráveis à migração para onde haja constante suprimento de flores. O que contrasta, diz ela, com as barreiras naturais que se estendem de leste a oeste na África, como o Saara e o Mediterrâneo.
Algumas espécies de beija-flor, porém, adaptaram-se a atravessar vastidões planas, onde o alimento é escasso. Antes de sua intrépida migração da primavera para os Estados Unidos e o Canadá, os beija-flores-de-garganta-vermelha reúnem-se no México e empanturram-se de insetos e néctar. Armazenam gordura e duplicam de peso em uma semana. Em seguida, atravessam o golfo do México, voando 800 quilômetros sem escalas por 20 horas, até a costa distante.
A região próxima à linha do equador é um reino de beija-flores. Quem sai do aeroporto de Quito, no Equador, pode ser logo saudado por um cintilante beija-flor-violeta, com pintura de guerra de manchas púrpura iridescentes nos lados da face. A leste da cidade, nas cabeceiras da bacia Amazônica, o beija-flor-bico-de-espada esvoaça na mata portando o bico mais longo de todas as aves em proporção a seu tamanho: mais de metade do comprimento total do animal. Nas encostas do Cotopaxi, um vulcão ao sul de Quito, o beija-flor-do-chimborazo foi avistado acima dos 4,5 mil metros. Ali ele passa a noite entorpecido em cavernas, pois desacelera seu ritmo metabólico o suficiente para não morrer de fome antes de amanhecer. Mais tarde, aquecido pelo Sol, ele recomeça a se alimentar.
"Quem estuda beija-flores fica irremediavelmente enfeitiçado", diz Sheri Williamson. "São criaturinhas sedutoras. Tentei resistir, mas agora tenho sangue de beija-flor correndo nas veias.

Finally got around to getting myself an external harddrive and am backing up all my pictures since I owned my first digital camera ( in the year 2000, a 2MP Nikon Camera )
Apparently that's the thing i the white box. Probably Waterloo Underground Station, Jubilee Line. Feb 2016.

The Oberon class was a direct follow on of the Porpoise-class, with the same dimensions and external design, but updates to equipment and internal fittings, and a higher grade of steel used for fabrication of the pressure hull.
As designed for British service, the Oberon-class submarines were 241 feet (73 m) in length between perpendiculars and 295.2 feet (90.0 m) in length overall, with a beam of 26.5 feet (8.1 m), and a draught of 18 feet (5.5 m). Displacement was 1,610 tons standard, 2,030 tons full load when surfaced, and 2,410 tons full load when submerged. Propulsion machinery consisted of 2 Admiralty Standard Range 16 VMS diesel generators, and two 3,000 shaft horsepower (2,200 kW) electric motors, each driving a 7 feet (2.1 m) 3-bladed propeller at up to 400 rpm. Top speed was 17 knots (31 km/h; 20 mph) when submerged, and 12 knots (22 km/h; 14 mph) on the surface. Eight 21-inch (530 mm) diameter torpedo tubes were fitted (six facing forward, two aft), with a total payload of 24 torpedoes. The boats were fitted with Type 186 and Type 187 sonars, and an I-band surface search radar. The standard complement was 68: 6 officers, 62 sailors.
Ocelot was laid down by Chatham Dockyard on 17 November 1960, and launched on 5 May 1962. The boat was commissioned into the Royal Navy on 31 January 1964. Ocelot was the last submarine built for the Royal Navy at Chatham Dockyard, although three more Oberons; Ojibwa, Onondaga and Okanagan—were built for the Royal Canadian Navy
Operational history
After commissioning, Ocelot was assigned to the 3rd Submarine Squadron, based at HMNB Clyde, in Faslane.
During the 1960s, Ocelot took part in clandestine missions. Ocelot attended the 1977 Silver Jubilee Fleet Review off Spithead when she was part of the Submarine Flotilla.
Decommissioning and fate[edit]
HMS Ocelot was paid off in August 1991 as the conventional submarine fleet of the RN began to decline, making way for the nuclear fleet. She was sold in 1992 and preserved as a fully tourable museum in Chatham Historic Dockyard.
In November 2013 the interior of HMS Ocelot was added to Google Street View by Google Business Photos Agency, CInsideMedia Ltd
